Tips & Suggestions

Preparation

Preparation Tip 1

If you plan on creating multiple servings, shake each one separately to ensure appropriate aeration and frothing instead of batching the full quantity at once.

Serving

Serving Tip 1

When salting the rim, only salt half of it so that the guests can choose between sips with or without salt.
